[A] [G]
I danced in the morning when the world was [Gb] begun,
And I danced in the moon, [D] the stars and the sun.
[G] I came down from heaven and I danced on the earth,
[G] At Bethlehem I had my birth.
Dance then, wherever you may be,
I am the Lord of [D] the dance and he,
[G] I'll lead you all, wherever you may be,
And I'll lead you all in the dance and he.
[C]
[G] I danced for the scribe and the Pharisee,
[D] But they would not dance and they wouldn't follow me.
[G] I danced for the fishermen, James and John,
[Am] They came with me [G] and the dance went on.
Dance then, wherever you may be,
I am the Lord [D] of the dance and he,
[G] I'll lead you all, wherever you may be,
And I'll lead you all in the dance and he.
[C]
[G] I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame,
The [Am] holy people said it was a shame.
[G] They whipped and they stripped and they hung me on high,
[Am] And left me [G] there on a cross to die.
Dance then, wherever you may be,
I am the [D] Lord of the dance and he,
[G] I'll lead you all, wherever you may be,
And I'll lead you all in the dance and he.
[C]
[G] I danced on a Friday when the skies turned black,
[D] It's hard to dance with the devil on your [G] back.
They buried my body and they thought I'd gone,
[Am] But I am the [G] dance and I still go on.
Dance then, wherever you may be,
I am the [D] Lord of the dance and [G] he,
I'll lead you all, wherever you may be,
And I'll lead you all in the dance and [Eb] he.
[Ab] They cut me down and I left up high,
I am the light that will never, never die.
I'll live in you if you live in me,
I am the Lord of the dance and he.
Dance then, wherever you may be,
I am the Lord [Eb] of the dance and he,
[Ab] And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be,
And I'll lead you all in the dance and he.
Dance then, wherever you may be,
I am the Lord [Eb] of the dance and he,
[Ab] I'll lead you all, wherever you may be,
And I'll lead you all in the dance and he.
